Beautiful Apartment!
We had a wonderful stay! Just a block from the Duomo! Very comfortable! Enjoyed the artwork, washer and dryer, and full kitchen! There are a couple flights of stairs to get up to the apartment, but our family had no problem with them. The building is charming and historic. Thank you Filippo and Caterina!

Nice retreat in historic Florence
Highly recommended. Would stay here again. Great location near the Duomo. Listing is accurate. Walking distance to the historic sites. 15 minute walk to the train station. There is noise at night as expected for such a central location.

The perfect place to stay in Florence.
We stayed at the apartment for two weeks. Filippo greeted us when we arrived at the apartment and provided all the information we needed for our stay. The apartment was very clean and obviously well maintained. It was a comfortable place to stay and Filippo was very attentive to all requests and questions that we had. The location could not be beat. It is within walking distance to all the main attractions in Florence and only 15 minutes walking to the train station. (We took several day trips and it was great to have the station nearby.) A small grocery store is right next door, and a larger one just a 5 minute walk. When we come back to Florence we will stay here again.

Wonderful stay in the heart of the city
Filipe and Caterina could not have been better hosts. The made recommendations and checked in to ensure everything was going well. You always knew how to get a hold of them if needed. The home was so lovely. It had everything you could have needed. We enjoyed every moment and did not want to leave. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for such an amazing stay!

Best stay in Florence so far!
When my husband and I were planning our trip to Florence we knew that we wanted to rent an apartment within a 5 min walk of the Duomo and this listing didn't disappoint. We loved that it was larger than other places we have stayed in and had a laundry room, that was sorely needed on this trip. Filippo was a pleasure to meet at check-in. He gave us a tour and went over all of the features of the apartment when we arrived, which was much appreciated. He checked in regularly to see if everything was okay and asked if we had any questions, which we didn't since he was so thorough on the tour. The beds were great, nice and firm the way we like them and the walk-in closet in the master bedroom was a nice touch. The kitchen functioned nicely and we cooked about half of our meals there during out 7 day stay, which as fantastic since eating at restaurants all the time can make a large dent in your wallet. We will be sure to book this property again the next time we decide to travel to Florence :)

More comfortable than home.
Do not hesitate to book this gem of a spot. It is HUGE, which I was not anticipating. Every small detail was checked. We got lost on our way in to Florence, trying to find parking and the host met us on his scooter to help us. Talk about above and beyond! The rooms are spacious, linens superb and amenities galore. Book this place and feel more than at home. I wish this were my home. When we return to Florence we will stay here again!

Great Location, wonderful home, a gem
Location, location, location! A wonderful experience overall. Filippo and Caterina were only a text away, if needed. Their home was perfect for our week long stay in Florence. We were able to walk everywhere and sneak back for a quick break then head out again. A gem!
